Message: [QUOTE="PoKeRFoRNiA, post: 2177725, member: 51710"] Now that, I may have done. I realized it after I got out of the table. After winning that hand and playing few more hands before I reach the big blind, I didn't feel comfortable playing at that table any further. So before I hit my big blind, I just left. That being an -EV, I agree with. I normally don't go there to have fun. I am somewhat serious about poker. I treat poker like a hobby and I try to build a bankroll now. Last year, I profited over $1500 that took care of my trip expenses to Korea. This year, I'm thinking about taking poker seriously. I started off with a bankroll of $5k(50 buy-ins of $1/$2) and I'm only up $500 in 3 weeks. It's not really much considering the time I've spent and since I can't imagine myself living off that. I want to slowly build up my bankroll. I read "Treat Poker like a Business" by Leatherass9 and I take poker seriously, especially against people I don't even know. I am working towards building it up and move up. If I am playing against my friends or cc games for fun, then I wouldn't have done that. But yesterday and before, I always took poker seriously and showed no mercy in having them reveal their hands as every hand gives me information about their ranges. But like you said, long-term -EV is what I didn't see, that everyone is eyeing me and will try to sharpen up against me only, which is -EV. I guess I'll just show the cards and get information from them through other hands. That one hand really made me uncomfortable to stick around and play, where I missed out on great opportunity to win more money since there were lot of donks at that table. I missed out on revenue and profit. [/QUOTE]
